This shot is a composition of three different
camera positions along the same horizontal line. I
wanted to see how the Stitcher handled a set of
images from different locations. It produced a
digital David Copperfield illusion and made the
7th Street Bridge disappear! I also took an hour
break between the shots and you can see newly
arrived cloud cover over the second half of the
panorama. Heavy bus traffic caused several
problems. One, that bridge shakes when they roll
by and a 5 second long exposure picked up some of
that movement. Buses also prevented me from
shooting on the traffic lanes. As an experiment I
think it came out well. I want to do this again
later at night with a better camera. I really
enjoy the almost 360 deg. view of the Northside,
Allegheny River, Downtown and back again.
